Sorry, I never read that particular interview. Geez, what does that say about English pop music if such lame, superficial lyrics "don't sound silly"? I guess that's a discussion for another time.

Hikki is certainly entitled to portray herself however she wants...I just don't like it, lol. Exodus had at least 5 songs with purely stupid lyrics, which is 5 too many in my book. Heck, that line about "mixing gene pools" in "Let Me Give You My Love" brought enough stupid to fill 3 albums. I actually loved that album when it came out; although I didn't think it was any kind of amazing artistic accomplishment, I listened to it nonstop. It was like a drug. Which is why after some time, I was left with this almost "blah" feeling....it was addicting, but in the end, it was like eating too much candy. No real substance to it.

Anyway, this is just one person's opinion. =) Hikki is at least on the right track with this song because it uses some REAL INSTRUMENTS, which approximately 1 of the tracks on Exodus did.
